Hall spanked by Butler, St J's blows opportunity to build BiGE RPI over ACC

[Logi4three]

Seton Hall about to lose by 20+ to Butler.  Sucks for us, given we are next game on Wednesday, but they have lost 4 out of their last 5 now.  

Meanwhile, St. J's blew 10 pt. lead over Duke that would have helped build our Big East resume over ACC. They played a hell of a game, but Duke stepped it up in crunch time (particularly after Plumlee and Duke's big lineup was put in at the end).  

In the end, both games still show how tough a conference the Big East is this year.

It seems every time a big east team gets ranked or gets hot they blow it and lose their rank ex. St. John's Georgetown seton hall creighton even.butler

Seton Hall will clearly not be ranked anymore, but Georgetown, Providence and Butler all should be ranked along with Villanova.  I don't think they will all be ranked, but they should be.

I agree

GT probably 19 and maybe Butler. Not PC.

Butler was never as bad last year as people made them out to be. They are a decent squad and I really like their young coach.  Would have been nice for a St. Johns win. They were very competitive though in what was a tournament like atmosphere.

I enjoy the Big East very much. Very happy we are part of it.
